This man got snubbed as an all-star! Only 4 players in the league average 24 points, 50 percent fg shooting, 40+ three point shooting and three of them are all-star starters! We need to get this man asap!
Very weak wing defense there. It's fine and yes a playoff team.
There are very few who are both great scorers and defenders like prime Kawhi. This lineup has three good to great shooters, three good to great defenders, two ball handlers / initiators, and height ( the shortest person is 6”5 ). We’ll lose minimum draft assets taking this route while still being compe ive, a win win!
Paul, Branham/wesley , HB, mamu , bassey is a serviceable second unit. Keep drafting pieces to replace positions while still competing at a high level. Zack , Trey, keldon, and chicago’s 25 first round pick gone in the trade.
No but he should go the Kings as part of the Spurs Fox deal. Kings have been eying him for some time apparently. Chicago get off that deal and get their pick back from us.
I think the asking price has moved up a tad but I’d still lift that in a minute. , I’ll get flamed for this but a Fox/Lavine backcourt with Castle/Sochan/Wemby front line intrigues me. Enough size and length to make up for the defensive deficiencies in the backcourt and some real offensive power.
I could get with that!
Castle and Sochan both can’t shoot so it might get us 5 more wins
Sochan not only can’t shoot, he doesn’t know when to not shoot. I coach 9 year olds that get up shots quicker than Jeremy, with better form. No complaints about his D though, just so he guards perimeter shooters.
5 more wins you say? Saweet!
Maybe Lavine instead of fox was the way
Lavine has only played 70+ games 3 times in his career. He’s a ing china doll. Fox, in a shorter career, played 70+ 4 times, and never played less than 50, which Lavine has done 4 times, including 2 seasons of less than 30 games played.
We could have both Lavine and Fox if they were willing to trade Dev. Wish they would have. LaVine is the player people think or hope Dev is or will be.
No. They will both make $50+ on their next deals,and Wemby will be on a SuperMax. Big Threes are done in the era of the Second Apron. I’d rather have Castle than Lavine,anyway.
Lavine is a of a player, that should never have been a question. I just wouldn't feel comfortable betting on those knees at this point.
Yeah throwing money at Lavine would be scary. Kind of reminds me how Baron Davis one year would look like a league MVP capable player and then next year he'd be a total scrub. Obviously Lavine has never been what Baron was in a good year but they definitely seem to have that Dr Jekyl/Mr Hyde aspect down.
Keldon + dev’s contracts match Zach’s over the next couple of years! Sacramento wanted to stay compe ive so here we are…… the salaries were a non-factor
Have zero regrets about the Fox trade outside giving up the Minny pick tbh. Spurs got the best player period.
The two big assets were the Minny 20131 pick,and the CHI pick back to Chicago. We got the Minny pick by flipping the 2024 #8 overall Poeltl pick,and the CHI pick came from the DeRozan S&T, so we traded S bag in 2018 for Fox today.
After a hot start, the Kings are 2-8 in their last 10 and Lavine is as empty calories-ish as ever.
Not only that, but the fact that Fox is 2 years and 9 months younger than Zach Lavine is huge in terms of timing better with Wemby and Castle..
Kings are ass full of empty calories high stats guys.
They should start tanking I think to keep their top 12 protected pick. That s Atlanta too.
They may already have started.
